What Kind of Toffee Should I Use?

To get that true buttery snap and flavor, use English toffee bits or finely chopped toffee bars. You want small crunchy pieces that blend easily into the chocolate and give the truffles that toffee essence without overpowering the soft center. Avoid overly chewy toffee, as it can interfere with the smooth texture.

Ingredients for the Brown Sugar Toffee Truffles

• Brown Sugar: This is the soul of the recipe, offering deep molasses undertones that make each bite feel cozy.
• Butter: Used to create a creamy base for the filling, adding that essential melt-away mouthfeel.
• Heavy Cream: Helps create a smooth and soft ganache-like center.
• Vanilla Extract: Rounds out the caramel notes with warm aromatics.
• Salt: Just a pinch to balance the sweetness and highlight the toffee.
• Toffee Bits: Adds texture and crunch, creating a contrast to the creamy inside.
• White Chocolate or Caramel-Flavored Melting Wafers: Perfect for coating and that beautiful finishing drizzle.

How To Make the Brown Sugar Toffee Truffles

Step 1: Create the Brown Sugar Base

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, butter, and cream. Stir until everything is melted and smooth. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes, then remove from heat.

Step 2: Add Flavor and Cool

Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Let the mixture cool slightly before refrigerating for about 30 minutes, or until it firms up enough to scoop.

Step 3: Scoop and Shape

Once chilled, use a small cookie scoop to portion out the mixture. Roll into smooth balls with your hands. Place them on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 15-20 minutes.

Step 4: Dip and Drizzle

Melt your white chocolate or caramel-flavored wafers. Dip each truffle and place it back on the tray. Drizzle extra chocolate on top for that signature look. Sprinkle with extra toffee bits if desired.

Step 5: Chill and Serve

Refrigerate the finished truffles until firm. Store in an airtight container.

Serving and Storing Brown Sugar Toffee Truffles

These truffles are best enjoyed slightly chilled, so the outer coating stays crisp while the inside stays soft and creamy. Serve them at room temperature for a few minutes if you prefer a softer bite.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. You can also freeze them (in layers separated by parchment) for up to 2 months—just thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
